The Greater Allegany County Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce its Spring and Summer Recreation Show to be held on May 6th and 7th, 2017. The two day show is a concept developed by the Chamber’s Events Committee, headed by Chairman Steve Ackley and Tourism Specialist Steve Havey. “We felt the need for an event like this in Allegany County and the committee has worked very hard to make this a fun show”, said Mr. Ackley.
Gretchen Hanchett, the Executive Director of the Chamber added “We are fortunate to have secured the Allegany County Fairgrounds in Angelica for our Recreation Show. Not only is it large enough and centrally located, but the venue has easy access to Interstate 86. This means that our show will be more attractive to out-of-county patrons.”
The show will highlight many kinds of recreational pursuits and the equipment needed to make them fun. Some exhibitors participating are:
Bob McKerrow and Sons, Inc, Travel Trailers; Wellsville Country Club, Golf and Fine Dining; R & K Marina, Boats and accessories; Evergreen Trails Campground, camping;
Burt Young Sales, Recreational equipment; Kmart, Recreational Sporting Goods; Swain Resort, Skiing and Tall Pines ATV Park, ATV trails, to name just a few!
In addition to the exhibitors, patrons will be able to see shows such as Jim Beverly’s Retriever Training and the New York State Police K9 Demonstrations from the grandstand. Eagle Dream will be displaying rescued birds of prey in the Milton Jennings Building and answering questions about these fascinating creatures. A delicious assortment of event food will be available and all the shows and attractions are included in the gate admission of just $3. Children under 10 years old will be admitted free! This is expected to be a fun, family event to put everyone in the mood for great Spring and Summer fun!
